Is there any universal steering rack or steering rack swap for the OBS Chevy’s..??
Rag joint replaced with U-joint?Every piece of my steering system is brand new including a 12.5 to 1 Redhead steering box. It’s still not as good as my bone stock, 130,000 mile ‘04. There’s no way I’m spending the money to go to rack and pinion, but I have no doubt that it’s better.
I used a box from a 02 burban with a ujoint and love it

They bolt right up using 02 pitman, only part that has to be changed is rag joint gets throwd in trash and 02 has ujoint. Have to do a lil fab work or do what i did, cut a end off a 02 shaft, cut rag joint off, i put w 3" long solid shaft on center that was a tight fit and welded it. It turns a little tighter and sure feels quicker ratioI wasn't aware the 800 boxes swapped over. What are the advantages over a modded 400 box?
Why would it need a heim joint? Its not in any kind of bind and is a stright shotThanks for the info, yeah, they also have a polyurethane rag joint i may try before i do the steering knuckle swap, i hesr some complain that the steering onuckle swap has an issue where it can lock up if the proper heim joint support arm isn’t installed with it
